31 year old Patricia Gibbs, of Livingston, was driving this 2014 GMC Sierra and slammed into the back of a vehicle.
3 Vehicle Accident, LIVINGSTON, January 25, 2017 - At approximately 5:30 pm on January 25, 2017, a maroon 2014 GMC Sierra, driven by Patricia Gibbs, 31, of Livingston, was east-bound on US-190 West near Long King Creek.  Traffic was heavy and had come to a stop in front of Gibbs.  Gibbs failed to notice a maroon 2005 Buick Terraza, driven by Hattie Foster, 68, of Livingston.  Gibbs slammed into the back of Foster's minivan and knocked it into a Silver 2008 Chevy Trailblazer, driven by Leroy Roth, 61, of Livingston.  All three vehicles remained in the right lane of 190 East.  Americare Ambulance Service was dispatched to the scene along with Officers Adam Williford, Sergeant Ronnie Bogany, and Detective Marty Drake with Livingston Police Department.  Foster was transported by ambulance to CHI Livingston Memorial Hospital with undisclosed injuries.  Gibbs and Roth were physically okay.  The right lane of 190 East at Long King Creek was blocked during investigation and cleanup.  Gibbs was cited for failure to control speed.  Gibbs' and Fosters' vehicles were recovered by Fawbush Wrecker Service and will be stored in Goodrich.  Roth's vehicle was driven from the scene.
